Not T3.

You think I'm joking...but its going to happen at some point. You know it. I know it. We all know it.

The Trudeau family exists almost exclusively from leeching off of Canadians. That and grifting is basically all they know how to do.

You joke but right now I'd put the odds of one of his kids being an MP at 2:1 and PM at 4:1. People love their political dynasties.

It was interesting in the latest 338 poll, the Cons in theory gained 5 seats since Dec 22, the Liberals lost those 5 seats and the NDP gained no seats.



I would have expected the NDP to profit from the demise of Trudeau, but they really haven't.

That’s because Singh attached himself to Trudeau.

I think the next election will purge anyone even remotely tied to JT.

I think Singh will be toast.

Fool me once shame on me.

How does fool me 3 times go again??

A shame really, Trudeau will never be fully aware what Canadians think of him. I was hoping he'd stick around to watch the fireworks.

Go #### yourself.

Canada, as we know it, is basically over.

Canada still is one if the finest places to live in the world. No doubt we have big challenges as all countries do (and Canada will change for sure) but we’ll still have one of the world’s best countries.

True. Polls don’t exist and he’s stepping down for no reason.

[Manhattanboy]

It would have been so satisfying on election night.

I feel cheated. He should stay on. It’s the least he can do. Disappointed.

[Scroopy Noopers]

We’re not seriously going to pretend that after pining for him to leave or be beat for almost a decade we want him to actually hold onto power for 9 more months just to do it with a ballot instead?? We’re in the stupidest ####ing timeline.

[GGG]

I think there is legitimate concern from conservatives that this could turn a majority into a minority. You can see it with the attacks that on Carney that started before Christmas.

PP and the rest of the conservatives really wanted the lay up and a lack of a strong opposition.

This while likely unsuccessful adds risk and so you see complaints

Well...a couple of things, first of all its more satisfying to boot his ass out ourselves rather than:

"You can't fire me! I quit!"

And secondly...some people need their egos kicked in.

Besides, its not like anything really material is going to happen in that time period anyways.

I can see it not being a majority at this point. The Liberals are such a disaster at this point. It’s their rock bottom.

They are just copying what the democrats did in the states. Guessing we’ll get the same result at the polls.

Every generation needs to suffer through their Trudeau.

We won't survive the next one.

T3: Judgement Day

The Canadian identity didn't survive T2, and now we have to do our best to rebuild it.

Dude… we did. Everyone hates him. That’s why he’s stepping down. Held off for ages due to his arrogance and eventually caved. The F Trudeau dorks should be celebrating this as a win.

From the article;

What are your feelings towards the New Democrats today?
I always used to say, Jewish values are New Democrat values. And I still believe that, but what I am seeing is that New Democrats are contradicting their own values. They’ve become very unprogressive, particularly the federal party, and their approach to the conflict in Israel and the Middle East is so one-sided. And the comments that I see are so antisemitic. I am sure that Jack Layton is turning over in his grave. Tom Mulcair has spoken out about it, the growth in antisemitism. He was able to shut down this level of hatred and vitriol towards Jews. And so I want voters to pay attention to who they’re voting for, because I do not believe that today’s New Democrats represent progressive values.

Is it your belief the New Democrats are increasing antisemitism in Canada?
Absolutely right. So this is coming for years. This isn’t new. I’ve seen it growing over time, among extreme voices among progressives, and they have become mainstream within progressive circles.

We’re seeing it now in union leadership in particular, and it is so unprogressive. They don’t listen to Jewish voices. The first lesson in racism is listen to those who are most impacted, but Jewish voices are completely silenced and drowned out.

So what we are seeing among leftist politics and extreme voices, they’re very hateful and very dangerous. I also see just politically, there’s a level of pandering to extremist voices, that is I think reprehensible.

As a result, the leadership of progressive federal parties, provincial parties, are aligning themselves with conservative Muslim groups that are anti-Israel.

Selena Robinson specifically talks about the Federal NDP.

It’s like you don’t even read it!??

Watching multiple news networks this morning, it feels like the consensus is that the Liberal Damage is pretty damaged. And that if they put in a new leader that is linked to Trudeau or part of his circle and that does include Freeland is that they are going to get squashed pretty hard.



Trudeau did visit the GG so expect a prorogue until March 24th, which means that for the first two month of Trump's presidency we're going to have no parliamentary oversight over any negotiations, and with Trudeau desiring to stay on as PM a lame duck government.

Everyone hates him now. But Canadians supported him for years despite the fact that he is the same person now as he ever was. Canadians just didn't realize it. Canadians probably should never be be forgiven for supporting him.
